We are extremely sorry to find, from our outh Lettrr, tiiat an event of a most distressing 1 - lture,.has occurred at, Dominica, Our Corre s,,,nident states, that some vesseli had arrived at nyinatit Li from Martinique, and have brouglit intelli gen :e, that a dreadful massacre had taken place at Dominica. The following ar'e stated to be the par ticulars " During the time the British Officers were at mess, a party of Blacks, under the influence of the French Government, entered the room, and barbarou.ly murdered the greater part of them : report states, all but two, who found means to make their escape." These are all the particulars which, have reached us. Government have not received any official. . , intelligence upon the subjea. • It is also stated; that a plot - has been dete&ed at Martinique, where the Blacks had formed a plan to • - assassinate the British Officers. We have received an American Paper, which con tains the following statement : we trust it will prove to be unfounded : ." BOSTON, JUNE 20. 7 -Letters from Washington repeat the report of the recal of Mr. PINKNEYfrom the Court of London, and that a Char&.-: des Affaires will. be left there. This, the Cabineteers 'say, is to be done to place the two nations on 'a diplomatic equality.". Last night some German' and Swedish Papers were received, , but they bring us very little news. Sa.veden, it appears, remains in a most distracted state; the Vrench and Russian parties arc each ex ertingAiieiriutmost.efforts_ to secure a successor to the throne, who may be supposed to be favourable -to their views. It is true the Russian Government has profeSsed a determination not to interfere upon the subject bat that it does interfere powerfully, though secretly, there can be no doubt. The German Papers state, that MARIA LOUISA . is in a state of pregnancy; but it is singular that BUONAPARTE, if the fact be so, has not officially announced it in the iWonitear. There is no account whatever of the unfortunate Louis ; the general opinion seems still to be, that he has embarked for America. YeFterday morning his MAJESTY and Princess AUGUSTA, accompanied by the Marchioness Of BATH and daughter, Lady HowE, Generals GARTH and WYNYARD, rode to St. Getirge's Chapel, where they heard Divine Service. • Princess SOPHIA is a little better of her cold. Sir H. HALFORD and Dr. DUNDAS, arrived at Windsor on Saturday evening at Princess AMELIA'S house in St. Alban's-street. Dr. DUNDAS StOpt about two hours, and then returned to Richmond. Sir H. HALEOED-StOpt all the night, and returned to London yesterday 'morning, leaving Princess AMELIA'in a fair way of getting better. His MAJESTY and Princess AUGUSTA rode in Windsor Great Park till twelve o'clock, on Saturday. His MAJESTY was acccmpanied ,by the Marquis CORNWALLIS, Earl HARCOURT, Lady COLLYER, Generals WYNYARD and GARTtI, Colonels TAYLOR; arid DESBROW. We are sorry to say that the Duke of .Sussex is confined from a sprain in his back, which he re ceived on Thursday when mounting his 'horse. The Duke of, CUMBERLAND yesterday paid a visit to the, Princess of WALES at Kensington Palace. Hisloyal Highness rode through Kensington Gar dens, and. we were happy to observe, looked very well; -he wore his black velvet cap, instead of a hat, and did not appear to have the use of his right hand., Aletter from New York states, that Sir J. B. WARREN, in the SuVlsure, and four frigates, bad arrived at Halifax from Bermuda. The Cleopatra had sent. into Halifax a French corvette, of 32 guns, with a. valuable cargo from the Isle of F rance , bound for Bourdeaux. On the 19i h,,the Hon. Mr. JACK• SON and his Lady arrived at New York from Boston. Ministers have entered into engagements for the establishment of a permanent Express between Lon don and Holyhead 7 —the distance (279 miles) is to be performed in 27 hours, at 9d..per mile, or about 20001. per annum. Yesterday afternoon the Ross and Renfrew Regi inent of embarked at the Tower, on board Leith and Berwcik smacks, for the Fortner place, and are replaced by the 8d regiment of Foot Guards. The different Volunteer Regiments - ,West of Tem ple Bar, are. to be brigaded on Thursday next, and accompanied by Cavalrrand ArtiHery,will march to Hampstead, for the purpose of having a sham fight. The review of ' Lord HEATHFIELu's btigade of Life Guards by the Prince of WALES is deferred until Monday tie 80th at to o'clock. TUE LYCEUZI.—A new Farce was represented at this place on Saturday last, under the title of Twenty Years Ago. _ • This Piece is the acknowledged produelion of Mr. POCOCK, jun. a Gentleman, who has often gratified the Public in the double capacity of an artist and a I dramatic writer. He .has hitherto appeared only as a writer of Farces, but from the specimen of his talents on the present occasion, we have reason to believe that he could take a higher flight in the dra matic regions witlisuccess.. His former efforts have been Tar ked by a kind of. humorous extravagance, rather beyond the usual • bounds of dramatic ro •natice,.but the Piece of Saturday has a charadter of interest mingled with its ludicrous, qualities, and'ex citeS sympathy as well Merriment. The charthers are,well adapted to the respe&ive performers, and the piece is ably sustained by Dow:. TON, RAYMOND, PENSON, and ,KNIGHT. Miss KELLY 'displayed great vivacity and humour, and Miss E; BOLTON supported. her character with deli cacy and interesting effect.. The house.; as crowded,and the audience teceived the piece with the warmest applause. • As Mr. SHERMAN was quite in time to Witness , the Installation at Oxford, and. yest-rday to see the' Launch at Deptford, we are tempted to draw a good omen from this vigilance, and to hope that it will be visible also in the erogress of. the new Theatre, what ever gloomy prediaions may ,prevail, gr o unded upon the long period 'which has elapsed since tl;eclektue 7 Lion of the former edifice, lnd the little that has been done during the interval.
